OSTEOARTHRITIS (OA)
- Native collagen, which may be poorly absorbed, could work through a mechanism of oral induction, and hydrolyzed collagen can reach the target site where collagen synthesis is needed. As a result, collagen represents a good therapeutic option to improve OA.
- Collagen is a good treatment candidate for OA among the different therapeutic options due to its safety and clinical evidence.
- Collagen type II is the main component of the cartilage tissue and is the potential to be used as a treatment of OA
